A Musical Family Background
Morally, Javed learned music from his family and more specifically from his father he used to sing too. There was a musical atmosphere in the house, but not every person in the house was into music. According to Javed, it is a blessing from Alam that he is able to hear music in his head. He is thankful for this gift and feels that his family involvement in performing art contributes to his musical thoughts. Since childhood, he tended towards music and was admired for performances together with his father. Hearing Ghulam Ali Khan’s ghazals made him dedicate a time in his life to music.
